Description

Rest is a container to be used when cooking. It purpose is to work as support for one or more utensils at a time, with the difference that they are not going to touch each other nor to stain one with another. This feature is especially interesting when cooking at the same time for people suffering from food intolerances or allergies and not. It is composed of two plastic parts: a support and a rippled bottom bowl where the utensils are placed. These ripples are the ones preventing food scraps from getting mixed. The support has a vertical flat bar with cracks that match the ripples, whose purpose is to hold the utensils' handle in a comfortable position so that the person cooking can pick them quickly. This vertical flat bar is foldable, allowing to fold the object so that it takes up few space. This makes it suitable for any kitchen, as it can be storaged anywhere. It can be hand washed or put in the dishwasher as it is made of plastic. This item is produced by plastic injection moulding, a very common system affordable for mass production.
